Reviewed by 🎀Maybe I’m just not smart enough but reading this was a pain.dont get me wrong sometimes it was really good and made you feel the way Leo is feeling .I just can’t stand Kerouacs writing style.why on earth are his sentences like 5 lines long.it might be that i have the attention span of a dog but that’s just what made it so hard to follow what’s going on.
